First thing I would do is check the pressure gauge and make sure it's functioning like it should.

Second, check for flow at the pressure tank while the pump is running. This will tell you a lot and eliminate a lot of other trouble shooting. No flow before the pressure tank means the pump isn't pumping like it should.

Good flow before the tank means the pump is working good but then your pressure tank is probably bad. One good indication of a bad pressure tank that has lost its charge is the pump will turn off and on quickly and very often.

I just fixed my mother in law's a month ago. She had no water at all. Took a look at it and found the contact points in the pressure switch were badly burnt. New pressure switch cured that but then I found plugged pipes to the pressure gauge and to the pressure switch.
